Boy group: In order to survive, I have to open business

The day before the <one star> concert, the rehearsal ended, but everyone was in low spirits because they knew they were disbanding, and they were not in the mood for the entire rehearsal.

Kim Seung Hyuk said it will rain tomorrow.

"The probability of rain is fifty percent," Hong Zhanglin's voice recovered a little, "I hope it won't rain."

Xia Xinglang: "Let's sing well to the end."

Yingzhi always came closer: "Little Wolf, let's not separate, okay?"

Xia Xinglang had always agreed with him and insisted on not separating, but they all understood how it was impossible not to separate.

Che Jaehoon tried hard to hold back his tears. He cried when they debuted and he is still crying now that they have disbanded. Xia Xinglang really feels that he is a man made of water.

I don't know what Yin Donghao is planning. He has been acting mysterious lately. Today, after the rehearsal, he went to find Xinglang and asked, "Xiaolang, will we form a team again in the future?"

This scene seemed familiar, as if before the second public performance of the "Idol Planet" talent show, Yin Donghao had asked him similar questions, asking if he wanted to form a team together.

Xia Xinglang’s answer at that time was to team up with Kim Seung-hyuk, and it’s the same now.

Seeing that he was thinking about something, Yin Donghao asked again: "Xiaolang, will you team up with me?"

Xia Xinglang didn't want to ruin his mood, so he wanted to at least wait until the concert was over: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, after the concert is over."

During the rehearsal, Xiao Yu would like to thank everyone and all the staff, the costume designers, makeup artists, stylists, and the entire team. Xiao Yu especially thanked the hairstylist who took the time to braid his hair every time.

Time goes back to the end of the concert.

Yin Donghao said on the stage that they would regroup. They retreated to the backstage and everyone was still immersed in the atmosphere that they didn't want to end. So when Yin Donghao spoke to Xinglang again, he thought he would get a positive answer.

"Will we team up again?" Yin Donghao also received invitations from many companies during his time here, and many people wanted to bring this ace trainee over. "I'm thinking about this seriously, Xiaolang, I want to team up with you again."

Xia Xinglang looked away: "What should I do, Chengxie brother?"

Yin Donghao: "Of course, the three of us will debut together! Just like in the talent show, can we debut together as a group?"

Xia Xinglang: "Brother Donghao, this won't work."

"why?"

"Brother, do you know a bird called the peregrine falcon?" Xia Xinglang told other stories. "Peregrine falcons don't fly in groups. They fly in the same sky, but not in the same direction. Their flight paths sometimes cross, but never overlap."

"What are you saying?"

When Xia Xinglang heard the farewell video of Yin Donghao's fans backstage, he was not moved but angry, because Yin Donghao was still talking about giving the C position to him and had no intention of competing. This was not a good thing. Yin Donghao, who had lost his competitive spirit, was not as shining as he was in his previous life, let alone brilliant. This would not last long.

Xia Xinglang looked at him deeply and said, "I will not team up with Brother Donghao again, and I don't want to be protected."

The team spirit can never be gathered together, there are still two pieces missing, and these two pieces belong to Jin Chengxie and Xia Xinglang respectively.

It started raining during the night.

Xia Xinglang walked over to the costume designer and staff to express his gratitude. They were still discussing ordering a midnight snack. Yin Donghao stared into the night and was quiet for a while.

Yoon Dong-ho wanted to find Kim Seung-hyuk. He always felt in his heart that Seung-hyuk would be with him, so he looked for Star Wolf first and put Seung-hyuk behind. It was a belief deep in his heart, a subconscious belief that Seung-hyuk would not leave him and they would always be a team.

Kim Seung Hyuk was chatting with his assistant with a smile, discussing farewell gifts for each staff member. They would disband and the staff would also leave.

Yoon Dong-ho: "Seunghyup, I have something to tell you."

Jin Chengxie and his assistant waved and walked towards him: "What's the matter?"

Yin Donghao: "Just now I went to Xiaolang and wanted to discuss the three of us teaming up again, but Xiaolang said no. Do you think we can persuade him to come back?"

Jin Chengxie was silent for a while, then asked, "Why did you look for Xinglang first?"

Yin Donghao: "We are a company, Xiaolang is an individual trainee."

Kim Seung Hyuk said expressionlessly, “It has nothing to do with this.”

Yoon Dong-ho said, "The three of us will return to the company, practice for a while, and then debut for the second time."

Kim Seung Hyuk: “…What do you want to practice?”

Just as Yin Donghao was about to explain, Jin Chengxie frowned slightly: "Who do you think is willing to go back to be a trainee after debuting, getting further and further away from the stage? We have been trainees for so many years, don’t you understand? All trainees want to stand on the stage, but we want to go back to the starting point? We can’t accomplish anything, we have achieved nothing…"

Yin Donghao comforted him: "I didn't say that, it's just that the style may need to transition."

Kim Seung Hyuk shook his head: "Donghao, why is it that the style is not my own, but I have to adapt to the style."

Yin Donghao suddenly felt very tired. In fact, his spirit had already reached its limit, and his thoughts gradually drifted further and further away from Chengxie. Just as Xinglang had just said, their paths would intersect but would never overlap.

Then, Jin Chengxie said the same thing as Xia Xinglang: "Donghao, I will not team up with you again."

"Then with whom?" Yin Donghao had a vague guess, which he hoped would never come true.

"Seung Hyeop," Xia Xinglang called Jin Seung Hyeop over and whispered as he passed by Yin Donghao, "Donghao, I'm really sorry. I took Seung Hyeop away from you. I'm sorry."

Yin Donghao stood there, feeling very uncomfortable when he saw Jin Chengxie putting his hand on Xia Xinglang's shoulder.

Where are you two going without me? When did your relationship become so close?

Why can Kim Seung-hyuk chat with Star Wolf so happily?

However, after going through so much, they still had to go back to the dormitory because their things had not been packed yet and they needed some time to sort them out.

Yin Donghao thought of a solution. Since the stadium where the disbandment concert was held was under maintenance, everyone would gather at the stadium again tomorrow to play hide-and-seek. If they could find each other, it would mean they could form a new team.

The seven people once again stood in the huge and empty gymnasium, and Xiao Yu drew roles and had to find everyone.

Yin Donghao still believes that everyone will reunite, and in some parallel time and space or parallel universe, the seven of them will continue to perform on the stage.

It is raining again today, and everyone is holding umbrellas and spreading out.

Xiao Yu was the first to find him, and Yin Donghao accompanied him to continue looking, followed by Yingzhi and Hong Zhanglin.

There is no one else.

When the four of them got together, they didn't know what to say. The people who were usually the most active and talkative, Xia Xinglang, Jin Chengxie and Che Zaixun, were not there.

The rain continued for a whole hour, extinguishing the daylight.

Xiao Yu didn't want to continue looking for them, so he called them. Xia Xinglang took a long time to answer the phone: "Brother Xiao Yu, is everyone here?"

Yin Donghao's Adam's apple moved. He grabbed the phone and asked, "Where are you?"

Xia Xinglang said on the other end of the phone: "We are leaving."

There were sounds of keys and doors closing on the other end of the line.

"Seunghyup, do you have anything to say?"

"No."

"Are you training your brother?"

"Bye, I want to celebrate Little Wolf's birthday."

"...Well, everyone was planning to celebrate my birthday," Xia Xinglang said, "Thank you everyone, but I'm sorry, I have to leave. Just treat me as a traitor."

Xia Xinglang opened the video call: "I'm sorry, Brother Yingzhi, Brother Xiaoyu, Brother Zhanglin, and Brother Donghao, I didn't say goodbye in advance. I'm sorry."

"I'm an accomplice." Cha Jae-hun put his arm around Xia Xinglang's shoulders and pointed at Jin Chengxie outside the camera, "There is another accomplice here."

Kim Seung Hyuk put his hand to block the camera: "Don't take pictures of me."

"Goodbye."

"goodbye!"

"Okay, that's it. I'm hanging up. Bye." Without waiting for a reply, Xia Xinglang hung up the call.

"..."

Xiao Yu wanted to continue calling: "Why did you leave without telling me anything? You hid it from us..."

Yin Donghao suddenly said: "They will regroup."

Yingzhi: "How do you know?"

"I talked to them last night after the concert," Yin Donghao wiped the rain off his face, looking exhausted, "and said this."

Xiao Yu: "What's going on?"

"How would I know?" Yin Donghao felt abandoned, and so did the three people in front of him. "So what should we do?"

Xiao Yu cut his hair to shoulder length after the concert: "What can I do?! Of course we will form a team too!"

Unexpectedly, Che Zaixun would also leave. Hong Zhanglin was touched, but he quickly calmed down: "I quit."

Yingzhi leaned against the window, watching the rain fall from the window sill: "I won't go in unless Xiaolang is here."

Xiao Yu didn't want to care about that, and held Yin Donghao's shoulders tightly. At this time, both of them were covered with water droplets: "If there are only two of us, we have to form a group!"

Yin Donghao was not interested: "What can we do?"

"There are many things we can do," Xiao Yu said with high morale. "Of course we have to catch up with them and surpass them! We have to make them regret not bringing us along!"
